2. Introduction What is development Sustainable development Views of sustainable development Concept of sustainable development Evolution of SD concept The pillars of sustainable development Changing perspective of SD Approaches of sustainable development Sustainablity principles Multiple crises and sustainable development OUTLINE

3. INTRODUCTION The term “sustainable development” first came to prominence in the world conservation strategy (WCS) in 1980. It achieved a new status with the publication of two significant reports by brundtanld on : North and South : a programme for survival and common crises 1985 and Our common future ( 1985) and had gained even greater attention since the United Nations conference on environment and development (UNCED) held in Rio de Jenerio in June 1992.

4. WHAT IS DEVELOPMENT? Generally development is the gradual growth of a situation that becomes more advanced and strong than previous one . Development is intended to bring a promise a positive change for human being and it’s surrounding. Development may take place by bringing about a change in policy , projects and legislation. Development is a unfolding of human potential for meaningful participation in economic, social, political and cultural process and institutions, so that people can improve their conditions.

5. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Sustainable development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs . Gro Harlem Brundtland first introduced the concept of Sustainable development in 1987 . He was the Prime minister of Norway and Chairman of the World Commission on Environment and Development.

6. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Improvement of lifestyle and we’ll being Sustainable development Preserving natural resources and ecosystem

7. Evolution of SD concept: RIO TO JOHANNESBURG The landmark event in the evolution of the concept of sustainable development had been the 1972 Stockholm conference on the human environment convened by the United Nations, the reports of the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED). Our common future and the 1992 united nations conference on environment and development (UNCED) or Rio earth summit as it is commonly referred to . The main activities between successive landmark events sought to build on the outcome of the previous event ,to clarify issues,and to provide inputs itni the mandatory process.

8. The UN established the commission on sustainable development (CSD) In DECEMBER 1992 to ensure an effective follow up of UNCED and to monitor and report on the implementation of the earth summit agreement at the local , national , regional, and international levels A (Rio+5) special session of the General Assembly, held in June 1997 , adopted a comprehensive programe of the CSD fir 1997 of agenda 21 as well as the work programme of the CSD fir 1997-2002. The Kyoto Protocol adopted in December 1997 and the conference of the parties (COPs) , held over the years , have made some advance relating to clarification of various aspects of financing and implementation sustainable development globally.

9. AIM

10. Maximizing the probability of achieving sustainable development.

11. Minimizing the chances of environmental degradation.

12. Four major components The climatic change

13. Bio-diversity

14. Examples of sustainable development SOLAR ENERGY =The greatest advantage of solar energy are that it’s completely free and is available in a limitless supply. Both of these factors provide a huge benefits to consumers and help reduce pollution. Replacing non- renewable energy with this type of energy is both environmentally and financially effective.

15. Wind energy is another readily available wind energy source . Harnessing is the power of wind energy necessitates the use of windmills; however,

16. Due to construction cost and finding a suitable location, this kind of energy is meant to service more than just the individual . Wind energy can supplement or even replace the cost of grid power ,and therefore may be a good investment and remains a great example of sustainable development.

17. CROP ROTATION =This farming practice is beneficial in several ways , most notably because it is chemical- free . Crop rotation has been proven to maximize the growth potential of land , while also preventing disease and insects in the soil . Not only can this form of development benefits commercial farmers , but it can also aid those who garden at home .

18. Efficient water fixtures. According to the EPA , it takes a lot of energy to produce and transport water and to process waste water , and since than one percent of the earth’s available water supply is fresh water , it is important that Sustainable water use is employed at the individual and societal level .

19. GREEN SPACE =According to the UW – Madison Department of unban and regional planning, advantages of green space include , “ helping regulate air quality and climate…. Reducing energy consumption of countering the warming effect of paved surfaces…recharging groundwater supplies and protecting lakes .

20. Pillars for sustainable development

21. Interdependent and mutually reinforcing pillars of sustainable development United Nations 2005 World summit Outcome Document

22. A Fourth Pillar “…. Cultural diversity is as necessary for humankind as biodiversity Is for nature .” Sustainable development cannot be understood “ simply in terms of economic growth, but also as a means to achieve a more satisfactory intellectual, emotional, moral , and spiritual existence. Universal declaration on cultural Diversity ( UNESCO . 2001)

23. Cultural: how many being make sense of the World How many thing , learn and solve problems, what they value and respect, what attracts and delights them , what offends them and their sense of what is appropriate. The soil in which the tree of identity has its roots Manifest itself in human relations system of organization, technology, arts , politics, economic, community life – all the things that humans do .

24. PRIMARY LEVEL CULTURE There is an underlying, hidden level of culture that is highly patterned – a set of unspoken, implicit rules of behavior and thought that controls everything we do . This hidden cultural grammar defines the way in which people view the World, determines their value , and establishes the basic tempo and rhythms of life . Most of us are either totally unaware or else only peripherally aware of this . I call these hidden paradigms primary level culture. ( E.T.Hall )

25. Others Metaphor for culture The collective programming of the mind which distinguishes the members of one group from another – the software of the mind The eyes through which we see the world.

26. Putting it all together

27. What are the desired outcomes of sustainable development? Clean water & air Fertile soil & good food A livelihood & a healthy economy An optimum population size Halting global warming Safety from poverty & disease Social contract& a sense of community Work, rest & celebration Opportunities to learn

28. CIDA’s Framework identities key features for the “ pillars“ of sustainable development Environmental sustainability Economic development Social development Cultural diversity

29. Environmental protection ° ecosystem Integrity ° Biological diversity ° managed population size

30. Environmental protection Economic development Appropriate economic policies Efficient resources allocation More equitable access to resources Increasing the productivity capacity of the poor

31. Environmental protection Social development Improvement income Distribution Gender equity Investing in basic health & Education Emphasizing participation Of the beneficiaries Economic development

32. Environmental protection Cultural diversity sensitivity to cultural factors recognition of values conductive to development Economic development Social development

33. The principles of a sustainable society are Respect and care fir the community of life Improve the quality of human life Conserve the earth’s vitality and diversity Minimize the depletion of non-renewable capacity Change attitudes and practices Enable communities to care for their own environment Provide a national framework for integrating development and conservation Create a global alliance

34. Sustainability principles Reduce dependence upon fossils fuel, underground metals, and minerals Reduce dependence upon synthetic chemical and others unnatural substance Reduce encroachment upon nature Meet human needs fairly & efficiently

35. Sustainability issues are to be analyzed at various levels Global level – Ozone depletion ,Climate change; and Air pollution Regional, National or Area level water pollution- water depletion- deforestation- fisheries depletion biodiversity- desertification and erosion Local level – a plot , a farm or a village. Soil losses – loss of soil quality ( chemical or Physical ) – loss of farm income .

36. What is our goal in sustainable development? Sustainable development requires the active involvement of all stakeholders: government NGOs , private sector , but also civil society. It is not just politicians, or policymakers who decide what SD should be like .

37. Goals You have to remind policy makers to make decisions to protect your future: you can remind them that you want better jobs , cleaner cities, more equitable resources distribution, above all , a guarantee that your future is secure , full of opportunity, a pleasant World to live in and a healthy planet .

38. Problems Where poverty and population pressure “ intersect” Human and their environment suffer

39. What is needed to achieve the sustainable development ? Eco friendly Present generation should aware fir needs of presence and future generations. And also ensure the productivity assets available to future generations are not . Such technologies need to be developed and implemented which help to conserve resources. Prevent unnecessary pollution and help restore the environment wherever appropriate.

40. Symptoms of crises Some examples of the impact of climate change on earth.

41. Suggestions We need to spread social awareness to bring massive change in social attitude. Action must be taken against the backdrop of serious inequities and their impact on the Environment Environmental mistakes of the past need not to be repeated, as past patterns of degradation are not inevitable.

42. There are many always of communication what sustainable practices is ….. However what is most important is to understand is to understand the connectedness of each of these areas
